Your client data stays where you saved it.
Every genogram and ecomap is a real file in your Documents folder. Back it up to your own Time Machine, sync it through your own iCloud, version it in git if you want. The app doesn’t upload anything by default.
Plaintext JSON in your Documents
.genogram.json and .ecomap.json files you can open, archive, or move between machines without our app installed
No-network editing
Open, edit, save — fully offline. License re-verifies next time you have signal
Clinical Mode strips PHI before any AI call
On the Clinical plan only, AI features deidentify client names + locations client-side before a single byte leaves your machine

Native shortcuts
Cmd+S, Cmd+Z, Cmd+F — everything works the way you expect. Real menu bar, real dock icon.
Apple Silicon native
Built for M-series Macs from the ground up. Intel binary available for older machines.
Designed to support both genograms and ecomaps.
Desktop or web?
Both run on the same backend. The desktop app exists for clinicians who can’t use cloud-based tools at all.
